Cold hard facts: The laws that govern your abilities to be a “free” American, allow some people to get away perpetrating criminal acts.

People born here in america do terrible things that would disgust any of us. That doesn’t mean anyone has the right to pry into their affairs without just cause. Like it or not, your lives would be hell if anyone who had a certification of any sort could just rifle through your belongings.

Your sanctimonious attitudes are absurd, not a damn one of you step up to help someone who’s rights where being violated for no reason, or to protect your own, but you will get up here and applaud some prick technician that went through someones files on their computer, when it was brought in.
You going to protect the geek squad prick that used a digital camera to tape that young lady while she was showering and he was working on her mothers computer? I mean, hey, he “accidentally” left his phone in their bathroom on record. No big deal right? If he had caught her in there watching child porn, he would be a hero.

You guys are ridiculous. I - AM - REALLY - A - TECHNICIAN; you do not need to nose through someones files to repair a computer, I employ the use of a thumb drive, containing various file types that I open on a computer, to test media fixes, so as not to even leave the impression I am rifling through peoples files.
How would you feel if you hired someone to repair some drawers on your antique cabinet, and he went through them, and showed your wife the pictures you had in there from college with your first love, sitting around smoking weed naked together?
Did he have the right to go through your drawers? I guess if he finds child porn that violation is ok though.
People that are LEGALLY, L E G A L L Y and L A W F U L L Y (both moral and by letter)convicted of Child Porography, should be beaten half to death and fed to rabid dogs on public TV, I will pay the fee to watch it. But I absolutely will not abide by those convictions made at the cost of MY liberties.
When you allow comportment of this type to go on, unrequited, you set a standard of action, dictating that your rights are only in place, and to be respected until it is inconvenient for corporate america.

Wake up.

lmao, you put a keylogger on his PC? Are you sure you’re allowed? And I mean, if he was savvy enough couldn’t he remove it?

This is pretty simple and have been said a lot of time, The guy has problem with his computer viewing images, When he brough it over to have a technician service and fix the problem, The Technician did not just snoop around, he was given permission to view the files to make sure the work was done propertly.

But as he is going through it, He saw or seen something that said kiddie porn or what ever, HE had no choice but to report him..

Now ya guys are saying that he was wrong . How can he be wrong, When he did not do anything run but do his duty..

Here is a good example,

Im a tech from NYC, I service a lot of computer around in the area and have seen a lot of porn and naked pictures in a users computer, Out of all the porn videos and pictures I see I never actually focus on any of them, Well just a quick glimpse when the client said he could not see his videos, Even though that guy has tons of porn or video, I did a quick search on his computer for child and age to see if any pictures or videos will show up , but none did, So in this case, I left the client house without any issue nor any police involved,

In one case I did find a video that said 14 year old having s** with big brother etc. Here is the weird part, It was a little kids computer, well not so little, he was 14 to 15 years old, So of course I was not going to called the police, He is a minor, So what really cant they do to him ?

But I did tell his mother and she was really upset, that her son was watching porn videos, but not only that but it was a young girl in the video.

Well ever since that happen, his motherhas hired me to monitor his computer habbit for awhile, which i did with a remote connection and keyloggers to see what he is doing on the computer, and every week I had to send her the information about videos of her son using the computer . and in case her son does something bad or is up to kow good, She gave me permission to shutdown the computer via remote .

So saying all this, It all depends on the sistuation and if US technician look the other way when something like this happen, Then how can our clients trust us at all ?

is pretty simple, is illegal to have child porn videos on your computer, If you have them and a technician see it, he will report it .

Remember be happy that US technician do our best to keep the clients information and data safe and in privacy mode, But once you give us permission to access your file for what ever reason, what ever we find on your computer regarding child porn will be turn over to the police.

Remember, we technician see a lot of stuff on users computer that we let go such as

pirate copy of software install
P2P software used to download copyright material.
tons of music and movies you know were downloaded illegally.

this are minor things that we let go, But when it comes to our kids, That is one thing I will never let go and I hope no technician will ever do that,

to all those negative poster out there, God forbid is one of your kids that is on that video , and the Technician looks away, and you found about it, I will like to know how you will sleep knowing your child body has been posted all over the internet . and the technician did not do anything about it..

the letter writer is stupid, and the guy who brought his computer in, well i dont think theres a word to describe him
